Making School Globes.

The school globes used in America are
nearly all manufactured at Troy, N. Y.
This industry was begun in 1852. Three
months is the time estimated for the com.
pletion of an ordinarily expensive globe.
The maps are printed in sections on Eng
lish drawing paper, and are mounted on
the hollow papier-mache globes,ts so that
the seams are not visible and no break in
the lines is evident. The trimming and
mounting is accomplished in such per-
feet way that the inclination of the globe
is always the same. Astronomical globes
are the most expensive and require longer
time for completion. When globes were
first made in America none larger than
five inches in diameter could be turned
out.-Dety01 Free Press.

FROM JEST TO MARRIAGE.
ENGAGEMENTS THAT WERE THE
$ RESULT OF ACCIDENT.

The Skipper Who Wanted q Mate
A Bazar Bargain-Taken Ina
Red-Headed Match.
Marriages are often the result of acci-
dent. 1t seems strange, but the most
prudent persons will sometimes conceive
an irresistible attachment at the sugges-
ton of word or look. When once
under the spell of the verb "To love, "
they go through all the forms and finish
the declension of the verb before the altar.
The few may give this subject the con-
sideration it deserves, but the many, there
is reason to fear, are guided by impulse.
A skipper of a coasting vessel called at
the village inn and asked the landlady, a
young widow: "Do you know where l
can get mate2 I have lost my mate. {"
81 am sorry for you, Mr.. -" she
said, smiling. 81 want a mate too, and
cannot get one. AS we are in the same
position, Plltell you what I'll do; if you'll
be mine I'll be yours" He closed with
the bargain, and the kwidow keeping to
her word, he is now supplied with two
mates.

Rnles for washing tho Face.

That celebrated authority on skin diseases.
Sir Erasmus Wilson, gives the subJolned III
structions for washing the face. In his abb
work, Healthy Skin," wLirh are Infinitely
superior to all the quack specifics so whey
advertised. aFill your basin about two
thirds full Of fresh water, dip your face III
the water, and then sour hands. Soap the
hands well, and pass hem with gentle ffic,
ton over the whole face Then dip the fnst
in the water second time and rinse 1t
thoroughly. A second basin ready with fresh
water is q valuable addition. The wrong
wars are using the towel, sponge or flannel Us
a means Of conveying the soap to tie face,
and emitting the rinsing at conclusion.
Then, as regards drying the face, moder-
ately thick and soft towel should be used Q
very rough one is not desirable, nor one oil
thick texture
A renowned vendor of skin cosmetics was
once asked by friend what was the best ap-
plication for Identifying and preserving the
complexion. wash your face well every
night and morning in very not water" was
the reply. No better advice can be given,
MS bv this means we assist materially the
skins natural action, and obviate blockage
of its follicles. Rain or distilled water,
owing to their purity and softness, are best
for washing the face.-London Dramatic

Taking His Own Medicine.

1t is certainly true that physician will
only take his own medicine with the creates
distaste This is common accusation mads
against the profession, but it is true and hu
an easy explanation. When man is hisor
physician he does not look at symptoms IN
that calm, dispassionate way that the ply.
sician must have in diagnosing patient
case. He is a prejudiced witness. and, like
any other mortal, he exaggerates his Hines
and imagines himself having all sorts d
things. He is apt then to diagnose his cas-
and overdose himself. You know patient
always believes himself more i'll than b.
really is. A physician is aware of this, and
he is the first to call in medical aid when b
is sick.
l know very prominent specialist herr
whose advice on certain diseases Is almost ak
solute, yet he is the victim of wonderful halu
cination when he becomes ill, and actualy
treated himself for chronic disease for SOM
time before he could be persuaded that b
simply needed n rest. Hence there Is GOO
reason for one doctor calling upon anothe
for treatment. 1t is the same with regard
physicians family. He seldom treats h
wife and children, because he fears that ii
natural affection for them would lead him
overrate their complaints. Thus all the fam
lies of physicians have their own doctors an
they exchange courtesies gratis .-Physiciani

Education and Companionship.

Specialized education does not necessarily
create companionable nor even sensible
women, else by parity of reasoning would all
professional men be personally charming and
delightful, which undoubtedly they are not.
A girl may be u sound Grecian, brilliant
mathematician, a sharp critic, faultless
grammaiian, yet be wanting in all that per-
sonal tact and temper, clear observation,
ready sympathy and noble self control which
make q companonable wife and valuable
mother. Nor is unprofessional or unspecial-
lied instruction necessarily synonymous with
idleness and ignorance, while good all
round education is likely to prove more SER
viceable in the home and in society than one
or two supreme accomplishments Many of
us make the mistake of confounding educa-
ton with requirements and of running to-
gether mental development and intellectual
specialization.
